58:1A-19. Findings, determinations relative to Rahway River Intergovernmental Cooperation Committee.
2. The Legislature finds and declares that the Rahway river is an important natural, recreational, and economic resource utilized and enjoyed by the citizens of the State; that the value of this resource is heavily dependent upon water quality, and poor water quality is a potential threat to the public health, safety, and welfare, and to the environment; that the river has suffered in the past, and continues to suffer, from abuse and neglect due to point and nonpoint source pollution discharges, stormwater runoff, illegal dumping of litter and other debris, and is subject to flooding conditions, creating a threat to people and property throughout the river system.
